Week 2
Today, we began our Everyday Math Common Core Curriculum. The first lesson reviewed skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s, counting both forward and backwards. We will continue to work with counting money, number sequence and addition/subtraction.
In Imagine It! we are focusing on long o and long u sounds. Also, students are learning how to summarize what they have read. Students are learning about the 5 steps of the writing process, beginning with prewriting (brainstorming).
In Social Studies, the students drew a map of their community, labeling the streets, houses and buildings. This week, they will learn how to read cardinal directions (N,S,E,W) on a map.
Congratulations to Jamauri Davis, our Student of the Week. Jamauri demonstrates the lifeskill of teamwork. Jamauri helps the peers in his group as well as helps the teacher. He is most definitely a leader!! Congratulations Jamauri!!
